Reversal

If the Americans vote in the young black guy then they will quickly have an old white guy in the Oval Office anyway, after he gets assassinated - and if they vote in the old white guy they're gonna get his VP in short order after he has a heart attack or cancer or whatever... so I really hope that McCain picks Rice or Powell as VP to complete the circle!

UPDATE: McCain has picked a woman, at least, so vote McCain if you want someone from a large disenfranchised section of society to get into power!

Hard choices

I'm glad that the BBC have an editors' blog - it makes it possible to ridicule cretins who believe that the Olympic opening ceremony is more important than Russia invading Georgia. Comment #2 is spot on.

Opening

I bet Gordon Brown is kicking himself for not going to the opening of the Olympics. They looked fucking awesome on the telly!

Escape

Dear Gordon Brown,

You have two ways of escape:

(1a. Call leadership election. Stand. Squash opponents.
(1b. Sack all detractors in cabinet.
(1c. Solve 10p rate mess by jacking up personal allowance by £2k.
(1d. Start proposing more actually sensible laws that benefit lots of people instead of obsessing over terrorism and knife crime.

OR

(2. Run away.

kthxbye

Form

New name, new look. Taken from the Justin Currie song "no surrender", which I urge you to hunt down.

Actual content will come later. Maybe :P
